As Saleeby pointed out, I think the article is clearly poking fun of the Hollywood Money Machine, but had to upvote you for sincerity.
That said, Styx is terrible! (Glad you're feeling better)

Growing up in the northeast, I'd never heard of Emmett Till until I lived in New Orleans a few years back. The story was told to me by a guy I worked with, and he conveyed it in such a matter-of-fact tone. Disturbing shit.

I hear Kevin James just signed on to a project where he plays Yusef Hawkins.
